F Mobile time tracking · included in every Fabrica plan

Your install crew is on a job site, not at a desk.

Clock in from the truck with one tap. GPS verified at both ends. Photo receipts for the lumber-yard run. Site contacts one tap from the project picker. And every hour lands in job costing without anyone retyping a spreadsheet.

Worker seats are free. No per-crew-member fee, ever.

One-tap clock in / out

Pick the project and category — Shop, Install, Finishing — and go. GPS captured silently so the foreman can verify the crew is on-site. Overnight shifts handled cleanly.

Photo-receipt reimbursements

The Home Depot run gets submitted from the truck: amount, category, project, up to 10 receipt photos. The office approves with one click; approved expenses book against the job.

Who do I call about the elevator key?

Every project carries its own contact list — GC, site super, designer, building manager. On the worker's phone they're big tap-to-call buttons under the project picker.

Why not T-Sheets / Clockify / Hubstaff

Time-tracking apps stop at the timesheet. Fabrica starts there.

Single-purpose trackers cost $5–10 per user per month, and the office still pastes hours into the job folder by hand. In Fabrica, the same clock-in feeds job costing, reimbursements live next to the project they were spent on, and the crew sees who to call about the site — one subscription, one login.

01

Hours become job cost, automatically.

Each worker's cost rate is snapshotted onto every entry. Every project shows estimated vs actual labor — hours and dollars — the moment the crew clocks out. No Friday retyping ritual.

02

Edit requests instead of texts to the foreman.

Forgot to clock out? The worker proposes the fix with a reason. The admin sees the before → after diff on the desktop time page and approves in one click. The entry updates atomically, audit trail intact.

03

The crew never sees your pricing.

The Worker role is locked to the time clock. No pipeline, no estimates, no invoices, no rates — even with a direct URL. Office staff keep the full CRM; the crew gets exactly what they need.

Per-worker reports

Where the hours actually went — by worker, project, and category.

Each worker gets a card: total hours, entries, blended $/hr, total cost, and a table of every project they touched. Preset ranges plus custom From/To dates, bookmarkable URLs, and weeks that start Monday — the construction-trade convention, not the calendar app's.

Desktop · /time/reports

The foreman's Monday morning, in one screen.

Who worked where last week, what it cost, which categories ate the hours. GPS pins on each entry open a side-by-side map of clock-in and clock-out locations with accuracy radius.

Questions

What shops ask about the time tracker.

Does Fabrica charge per worker?

No. Worker seats are free on every plan. You pay for office seats — $99/month covers up to 10 — and the install crew clocks in from their phones at no extra cost.

Do workers need an App Store app?

No. The time clock is a web app workers add to their phone's home screen in one tap. iPhone and Android both work.

Can workers see the shop's pricing or pipeline?

No. The Worker role is locked to the mobile time clock — pipeline, estimates, invoices, and rates are unreachable, even with a direct URL.

How does GPS verification work?

Location is captured at clock-in and clock-out. On the desktop time page a map pin shows both coordinates with accuracy radius. Workers don't see each other's locations.

How do hours reach job costing?

Automatically — each entry carries the worker's snapshotted cost rate, so projects show actual labor vs estimate in real time. Nothing is retyped.

What about subs and per-diem labor?

Track them under freeform worker names without inviting them as users, or give them free Worker seats — either way their hours cost against the job.
